The  Gunners were really interested, but Roma's demands exceeded what they  were willing to pay."A transfer in January? There is no news there.  There is no  guarantee he will move in the summer, but there will probably be some  offers. But in general it is hard to predict anything in football.  "A move to China? We are talking about excessive offers. The figures  being touted are stunning. But Kostas has the option to play at the  highest level and I would say China does not suit his ambitions."Football in Europe has much more to offer than just money, like fame and recognition."   Sky Italy claimed last week that Everton were the latest Premier League club to show an interest in Manolas.</blockquote>
